The general Lefschetz theory contains the index theory as a special case, while the case to be studied is much more easier than the index problem. The main topics are: - The calculus of pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with edges, especially symbol structures (inner as well as edge symbols). - The concept of ellipticity, parametrix constructions, elliptic regularity in Sobolev spaces. - Hodge theory for elliptic complexes of pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with edges. - Development of the algebraic constructions for these complexes, such as homotopy, tensor products, duality. - A generalization of the fixed point formula of Atiyah and Bott for the case of simple fixed points. - Development of the fixed point formula also in the case of non-simple fixed points, provided that the complex consists of diferential operarators only. - Investigation of geometric complexes (such as, for instance, the de Rham complex and the Dolbeault complex). Results in this direction are desirable because of both purely mathe matical reasons and applications in natural sciences.}, language = {en} } @unpublished{PraLouisMinelli2008, author = {Pra, Paolo Dai and Louis, Pierre-Yves and Minelli, Ida G.}, title = {Complete monotone coupling for Markov processes}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-18286}, year = {2008}, abstract = {We formalize and analyze the notions of monotonicity and complete monotonicity for Markov Chains in continuous-time, taking values in a finite partially ordered set.

The data gathered suffer from attenuation due to the tissue density µ. Each imaged slice incorporates noisy sample values of the nonlinear attenuated Radon transform (formular at this place in the original abstract) Traditional theory for SPECT reconstruction treats µ as a known parameter. In practical applications, however, µ is not known, but either crudely estimated, determined in costly additional measurements or plainly neglected. We demonstrate that an approximation of both f and µ from SPECT data alone is feasible, leading to quantitatively more accurate SPECT images. The result is based on nonlinear Tikhonov regularization techniques for parameter estimation problems in differential equations combined with Gauss-Newton-CG minimization.}, language = {en} } @unpublished{BoeckmannNiebsch1998, author = {B{\"o}ckmann, Christine and Niebsch, Jenny}, title = {Examination of the nonlinear LIDAR-operator : the influence of inhomogeneous absorbing spheres on the operator}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-14725}, year = {1998}, abstract = {The determination of the atmospheric aerosol size distribution is an inverse illposed problem.
